As much as an easy setup blown (and the second one of the show) ruining a perfect show which would have included 3 Strikes and yet another Master Key found with 1:4 odds (THAT 4TH KEY WAS WAVING ITSELF TO BE PICKED, I'M TELLING YOU ) stings, this was a great show! The only possible improvement besides Freezey was getting that wheel to the dollar in SC1... DOUBLE-OOF! The first miss was just about identical to the $1mil bonus spin miss.

One of the best lineups EVER.

Strikes second, and when you think something like Cover Up or Money Game is going to show (and no SP), Master Key shows up.  Absolutely incredible.

Also, if that wasn't enough, the crazy Wheel in SC1...landing literally on the peg, man.

[therealcu2010]

Very good lineup today, and a near perfecto.

SQUEEZEY: Easy pickings.

3X: Yay! Three Strikes! And a win! I thought $40K on the Caddy.

CLOCKY: He stumbled a bit on the first prize...but managed to pull out a win in the final seconds.

SD1: Ow! Three near misses of the dollar!

FREEZEY: Easy setup...yet, no win. $4995 was screaming "Pick me! Pick me!"

BULLSEYE: Close call there...but good win nonetheless.

KEY: I was not expecting Master Key 6th. Great win by picking the fourth key, which turned out to be the master key!

SCs: My bids:
 Hot Tub- 17500 (OVER)
  -24000 (OVER)

OVERALL: 4.5/5. A very good show. If only Freezey was won.

Wow!!!! I said last Friday that that particular show's lineup was the best of the year. Today's makes we take it all back yet again. Just unbeliveable. Roger has done it again. I did not think we'd get a SP again today, but when those big doors opened prior to pricing game #6 I was like "OH MY, MASTER KEY IS GONNA BE PLAYED LAST!!!! I was floored. Especially considering that Strikes was played earlier in the show. The whole lineup was great from top to bottom-two of the better quickies were played in Squeeze and Freeze, Strikes makes its long awaited return to the daytime, Clock is always fun, Bully is a neat game, and Key-the 2nd SP car game to be played last this year. Just totally awesome. If anyone posts something about this lineup being awful they need to be hit up side the head with something because today was just flat out fantastic.

[Franc]

Great show! One of the best I've seen, so far this year! Drew was in great form.

- For Squeeze Play, $7995 was too obvious. That 1 screamed "Pick me!"
- A great playing of 3 Strikes. Exciting, and it's always fun to see 3 strikes!
- A miracle win in Clock Game. How he pulled it off, I have no idea!
- Freeze Frame. Again, $4995 just screamed "Pull the bloody handle". Guess she (and they) didn't hear it!
- I think everyone in chat said "2 Cajun Injections" in Bullseye. Sure enough that did it!
- YES ! Master Key, my favorite game. And I'm gonna say like everyone ... Key #4 was waving at everyone! hehe

I can't watch the show too often, due to work, so I'm glad I got to see THIS show! 4.5/5!

[phunguy]

If only Shannon had pulled the trigger two seconds earlier than she did...

[BarbaraE]

Wow!  This was a way awesome show!  I bet I'm about the umpteenth one to say they didn't expect to see Master Key sixth because I sure didn't!  When I saw the three prizes revealed together, I thought "Master Key 6th?  Okay..."  I also loved the incredible Three Strikes playing and win and the rest of the show, but I didn't like it when Shannon blew the perfect show on Freeze Frame.  Heck, I don't think anyone liked it!

Edit by Frank15:  This rant really doesn't belong here.  If someone wants to ignore you, it's their business.

Anyways, a very awesome show.  Can't wait to see if the trend continues tomorrow!

I wonder why Drew didn't do a "hold my hand and say 'alakazam!'" bit in Squeeze Play, it seemed a bit bizarre to me but, at least the price got revealed.

Wow 3 Strikes was played!  Kasey played the game well, and got only one strike against her and it was great that she picked up a pretty loaded-up Cadillac today.  I kind of laughed at how Drew kept saying "the thing" when he was putting the chips into the bag.

That was a pretty close call for Brad in Clock Game.  He kind of bungled through the surfboards, by going to $750 when Drew said that the price was higher than $800, but I guess he kind of forgot about that when he was playing.  He did very well on the desk, though.

I really wonder why Freeze Frame was lost; $4,995 was just asking to be picked.

Wow, Master Key played last for the first time since October 15, 2003! 

I can't say that the second SP was begging to be won, there are some pretty cheap electric toothbrushes out there and I was kind of not surprised that was missed. 

I found it kind of odd that Drew asked David which key he wanted instead of having David go up to the board and get it himself.

I find it kind of interesting that the fourth key was moving back and forth like a pendulum, David picked it, and it turned out to be the master key!

[RACEFAN2417]

I didn't tape this one unfortunately   I MISSED 3 STRIKES!!  

Game 1: It looked VERY obvious
Game 2: BEAUTIFUL CAR!!!! BEAUTIFUL WIN!!!!
Game 3: LUCKY WIN!!
Game 4: $7,738 for a piano?? I don't think so. $4,995 was the way to go
Game 5: Great win
Game 6: GREAT WIN! This is the only game where Rich doesn't announce the total prize . I wonder why that is

Overall: 9.7/10

[BRB_TheFireball]

3X:  Yay!  3 Strikes is back in daytime! And what a fantastic win, too!

Freezy:  How was that lost?  $4,995 was just screaming to be picked.

Key:  Yay!  Master Key! And it was played SIXTH!  Holy crap!  First time since October 15, 2003.  And a great full-on win with only one choice of keys.  It's just too bad that Freezy had to be the game that cost us a perfecto.  Of all the games that could produce the lone loss, you'd think that it would've come from one of the car games.  Oh well... it was a great line-up with great wins nonetheless.

My showcase bids:
Random room/spa--$18,007
Boat--$23,607

I missed Act 1 (Squeeze Play) due to being stuck in traffic, but I managed to see the end of Act 2 (Three Strikes) to see the win!  Great lineup of pricing games and one of my favorites is played today (Master Key).

[2008nowandthen]

Hey All.

  A perfect show today in my opinion.  The "knowledge-able contestants" won their games, the way it should be.  As for the loss in Freeze Frame:  It was a contestant enforced loss,which in the big picture, helps the shows budget.  If you dont watch the show regularly and seen that SAME PIANO with the SAME CUE music, for the SAME PRICE...ALL FREAKING SEASON LONG....YOU DESERVE TO LOSE THE GAME.

   Drew was EXCELLENT today, along with a camera time of the DOB.... ,,I wish I had Rogers email, as he is one cool guy.  He made my TPIR so wonderful.

Kasey's 3 Strikes win was awesome of course, but was anyone else slightly miffed when Bart refused to show the final price blinking in all its glory on the 3 Strikes board once she pulled out the zero? That's one huge set piece, seems kind of hard to ignore, but then again, when the camera zoomed in tight on Drew and Kasey too soon after the Cadillac plug I guess Bart has different priorities. I don't think this is nearly as bad as Drew not reading the ARP after Card Game, but even a nanosecond cutaway to the huge 3 Strikes board blinking the entire price would have added so much to the thrilling victory.

.....and(Master)Key-the 2nd SP car game to be played last this year....

oops...I was asleep. What other SP/Car game has been played last so far this season?
